How to cook deliciously - Air Fryer Crispy Chicken Sandwich

1. Stage

Pat chicken dry with paper towels; season all over with 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.

2. Stage

In a shallow bowl, whisk eggs, mustard, pickle juice, paprika, garlic powder, and cayenne until combined. Place bread crumbs and flour in separate shallow bowls.

3. Stage

Dip one chicken cutlet into flour, shaking off any excess. Dip chicken into egg mixture, letting any excess drip off. Coat chicken in bread crumbs, gently pressing to adhere. Transfer breaded cutlet to a plate.

4. Stage

Generously coat an air-fryer basket with cooking spray. Working in batches, arrange 2 cutlets in a single layer in basket. Generously spray chicken with cooking spray until evenly coated. Cook at 400º, flipping halfway through and generously spraying second side with cooking spray, until breading is golden brown and chicken is just cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool 5 minutes.

5. Stage

Arrange chicken on bottom bun. Layer lettuce, tomato, and pickles over chicken. Spread top bun with mustard and close sandwich.
